Check this first: https://eblocker.org/community/announcements/before-posting-here-please-read/

If you are on eOS 2.4 still please wait for the 2.5 update as underlying OpenVPN has been updated which solves most VPN related issues.

THX!

He guys, may be that im at the wrong place but is related to VPN. I tried to configure Cyberghost as VPN. Has anyone experience with this issue? The problems are: I generated the openVPN file with the cyberghost page and got an problem with not supported values "20: script-security 2".

A other point is that eBlocker realices that I have installed a Cyberghost client on my PC and will not work. Has anyone experience with this issue?

and hopefully you made your donation. This is one of the best tools to make me safer in the internet!

 

Release eBlockerOS 2.4

Raspy 3+

Win10, iOS 14 and 12 in my network

Remark: Have started Cyberghost at first one my PC, than aktivated in eBlocker and disabled at the PC and is working now but why I don't know....

@willifly Please read what's stated above. This counts for you if you are on 2.4 too.

2.5.6 coming up next week for all devices. It will probably fix the issue.

No need for cyberghost client on your PC. VPN on PC must stay disabled if you want eBlocker to block trackers and ads in VPN connection as well.

Just enable VPN on eBlocker. In the dashboard (eblocker.box) chose the CG VPN for your PC. Done.

Understandible. Left only one question. How I can change the VPN profil? You know, there are many different profiles and server available to select for a spezial porpose. Ore is it also an issue for the next release?

Sorry, one more issue. I realized that the Cyberghost profile for NL is correctly working but have used to to "Linux" for my PC. Provider is anonym but PC, Broser und operating system is the real one and not the selected one. (Privacy Check)

Just I'm installing eBlockers for my family and so I have more and mor experiance and "problems".

@willifly For each VPN node (like New York, Moskau, etc) you need to add a different VPN file to eBlocker. eBlocker handels as many VPNs as you want.

BTW: Device A can be routed to VPN New York, Device B to Moskau, Device B "normal"  etc. - all in parallel. No problem if your providers can handle this 🙂

@benne

Everything seems ok, also the "Verbindungstest" answered with ok. But if i check on a "whats my ip site" i still have a ipv6 leak. my ipv4 informations are covered.

This doesnt happen with the surfshark app on my pc. btw for the eblocker test, i switched the surfshark app off.

 

best wishes

torsten

@todt eBlocker does not support IPv6 yet (see here - in German only)

Personally I would recommend not to use IPv6 at all and disable it in your router/devices, as IPv6 is a privacy nightmare anyhow.

So I'm closing this issue if you are OK as surfshark seem to work wit eOS 2.5 now.

THX!

@benne I'm newbie in using forums. Forgot to klick subscribe to this topic

Installed the new version. Restoring of my config failed like described.

Certificate was not working anymore. Installed it new and working.

The old VPN config was not working. Got a new one and after some try’s it works well.

Made one mistake. In the profile is a new user and PW but used the old one. After correction it worked well now!

QW: Which protocol can be used? Two options: open VPN and open VPN IP
